Lord Thoth returned to the 8 other Egyptians, who were still in the spectating hall, all still in shock
"You all look like you've seen Apophys" Thoth mocked them as he chuckled at their shocked faces
"Thoth are they all gonna go that hard?" Tefnut asked
"Based on Athena, Gaea and Hemera are probably the least capable out of the Greek group, so realistically it's all going up hill from here" He replied
"WHAT? DO YOU WANT US TO DIE" Maahes said
"No, not yet" he replied
"I don't mean to question you, lord, but isn't this a bit unfair?" Anubis said
"Do not underestimate yourselves, look at Geb and Hathor they nearly won, they reached 75%, if it wasn't for that final blow I reckon they could have done it" Thoth said
"We'll be fine! I'm sure we'll be able to win some matches" Ra said enthusiastically
"Good spirit as always, Prince. Now, let's not waste time, the next team that will be competing is Anubis and Nüt" Thoth said as Anubis tied his hair back and Nüt nodded
"Who are we going up against?" She asked as Thoth snickered
"Your opponents are... Hermès Vrachos and... Dionysus Prásinos" he replied as Nephthys's eyes widened and the group got excited
"It's finally time to see what all the talk is about, I'm curious to see if Dionysus is as goofy as he looks" Tefnut said
"He better behave himself or so help me Ra I'll-" Nephthys said
"It is not particularly Dionysus or Hermes that you must fear, but their spirits" Thoth said
"What" Anubis asked
"OH GOD WAIT I FORGOT!" Nephthys yelled
"These two poses some of the most powerful spirits amongst their group, with Hermès having the mighty Minotaur, while Dionysus's spirit is... Lord Sobek, the Egyptian god of crocodiles" Thoth said as the hologram showed their two spirits
"WHAAAAAAT" Maahes asked
"Wait... I remember my father told me there was an issue amongst the ennead regarding lord Sobek, did it have to do with this?" Ra asked
"Indeed. Sobek being a Spirit for a mortal from Kemet shook some heads around the pantheon. Alas we are getting sidetracked" Thoth claimed
"Anything in particular we should look out for?" Nüt asked
"Interestingly, Dionysus and Nephthys have different fights styles, although not too different, Dionysus is a bit more reckless, a wide range of abilities up his sleeve, often using tricks and his wits to outsmart his opponents" Thoth said
"Lord there is no smartness found in him. No thoughts. Nothing" Nephthys said
"As for Hermes, he usually uses the ground and the mountains to bend to his will, in addition to heavily relying on his spirit to summon various fauna to aid him. In a similar fashion to Geb, but way tankier and extreme" Thoth said
"Wait but... he's the power holder of Hermes, the lord of swiftness, how is he tanky? Shouldn't he be agile?" Nüt asked
"One would think that, yet he was quite creative in his usage of the power, using it in a different form" Thoth explained
"And what of our objective? Will it be the same as the last group?" Anubis asked
"Good question, your objective is different. There is a target flag in the middle of the map. Your objective is to deliver that flag to the end point in the far western side of the map. If you succeed, you win. Yet if Dionysus and Hermes manage to stop you from doing so by the time your time runs out, you lose" Thoth said
